Proposal Title: ISA
Computer Resource Request
Submitted by: Denalsky, ISA
Remarks:
The proposer's request for computer equipment
was also requested in Student Technology Proposal S-00-001. The
proposer might consider submitting a new proposal requesting that a few
computers in the general access lab be adapted with specialized software or
keyboards so that a greater number of students could have access to the
equipment during a broader range of hours. The proposer is also
reminded to consider the cost and maintenance of software user licenses in
any future proposals.

Proposal Title: New
Equipment, Software and Student Access for Sound and Video Editing Lab
Submitted by: Rainey, HTC, and Scarboro, CIT
Remarks:
This proposal noted that the labs were open
during Fall 2000, although utilizing a model that the proposers did not
consider sufficient. TFERT acknowledged this, but the consensus is not to
fund staffing at this time. The proposers are invited to submit a request for
a full year of staffing funds (for FY02) later this spring.

Proposal Title: Additional
Open Access Hours for the Multimedia Authoring Lab
Submitted by: Scarboro, CIT
Remarks:
TFERT recommends that in spring 2001, proposer
request funding for FY02 in order to evaluate the most effective hours for
the lab and the required staffing for those hours with the following friendly
amendments: Consider re-submitting a proposal for staff funding for one year
only in order to evaluate the need for the staffing position, and then if
proposer determines that additional staffing is required, we recommend that
proposer request a permanent staff position out of the general operating
budget for FY03. Clarify the need for operating supplies. Operating supplies
will not generally be considered for funding except for special projects.

Proposal Title:
Departmental Technical Support
Submitted by: Murphy, A&S
Remarks:
TFERT appreciated that this proposal included
a method to "move away" from the tech fee fund support, however,
the request for funds was seen as one for administrative departmental
support, primarily technical. The consensus of TFERT was that funding for
this position should come out of the general operating budget/personnel allocations.

Proposal Title: DVD
Production
Submitted by: Siddiqi, CNST
Remarks:
Although some fee-paying distance learning
students in credit-bearing courses may benefit, individuals signing up for continuing
education certification courses do not contribute to the tech fee funds and
should not be primary beneficiaries of tech fee funds. BOR recommends that
tech fee funds not be used for research, but in this proposal, the proposer
suggests that funds will be used to "build upon the experience gained by
the principle investigator."

Proposal Title: Student
Access and Supplies for Two Computer Classroom/Laboratories
Submitted by: Stevens, HTC
Remarks:
Proposer states that he would use tech fee
funds for staffing and funds that currently support staffing would be
redirected. Staffing would be used for computer preventive maintenance, which
is more of an administrative or general operating expense and is not a high
priority for tech fee funds.

Proposal Title: Microsoft

Submitted by: Zeigler, CET
Remarks:
This proposal was initially reviewed by the
Information Technology Advisory Committee (ITAC). They submitted it to TFERT
as part of a group of proposals that were "set aside" and not
prioritized for funding. The general explanation was: "The specific
criterion that was of main concern was whether the proposal was for
replacement of existing equipment/facilities. The Committee [ITAC] had strong
mixed feelings about this criterion. As a result, seven proposals were set
aside because it was determined their intent was to replace equipment."
